Gaza – Saba:
Ted Chaiban, Deputy Executive Director of the United Nations Children's Fund (UNICEF), warned that the humanitarian situation in the Gaza Strip is shocking, stressing that the Strip faces a severe and worsening famine risk due to ongoing restrictions on humanitarian aid entry.
Key Points from Chaiban’s Statement:
- "Gaza has already crossed the famine threshold", with clear indicators showing extreme food deprivation.
- "One in three people spends entire days without food", while aid fails to arrive in sufficient quantities or speed.
- Thousands of children suffer from acute malnutrition, while others are killed by continued military operations.
- "Children in Gaza are starving and being killed amid ineffective international action."
Chaiban demanded:
- "Flood Gaza with aid immediately" by opening all possible crossings.
- Large-scale humanitarian intervention to save lives before it’s too late.
Since October 7, 2023, the Israeli enemy army—backed by American and European support—has committed genocidal crimes in Gaza, resulting in:
- 60,332 Palestinian civilians martyred (mostly women and children).
- 147,643 injured (figures remain incomplete, with thousands still trapped under rubble).
